Apple iPhone 13 reviews hit the internet on Tuesday, with most of them focusing on the upgrades to the iPhone's internals, including its longer battery life. 

By and large, the reviews were positive on Apple's latest smartphone, with some heaping praise on the updated cameras, high-refresh rate display and video taking capabilities.

Others highlighted the new A15 Bionic chip, which gives the iPhone 13 an up to 50 percent faster CPU than the competition, along with delivering up to 30 percent faster graphics. 

Last week, the Tim Cook-led company unveiled four new iPhones - the iPhone 13 mini, iPhone 13, iPhone 13 Pro and iPhone 13 Pro Max - along with a new Apple Watch, iPad mini and some updates to its Fitness+ subscription.
